Unseen University Challenge

What is this?

This is an on-line version of the Unseen University Challenge, a popular event at the DWCon '96. The original question database was kindly been made available by the quiz organisers Mark and Darrell. This implementation was done for L-Space Web by Curiosity.

The full question database is also available in text and MS Word format.

How do I play?

You can take the whole quiz if you like, or just do a section at a time. It's up to you. After you've taken the quiz you'll be told how many you got right.

So. Why not have a go at the whole quiz ? If you haven't got time for that, then you could try just one of the sections of the test below, and if you're really pushed for time the only option left is to try a Pick of Ten questions, taken at random from the question database.

The test is made up of the following sections:

• Food and Drink (40 questions)
• Flora and Fauna (32 questions)
• Language (69 questions)
• Magic (72 questions)
• People of The Disc (276 questions)
• Artefacts of The Disc (12 questions)
• Religion (24 questions)
• Geography (117 questions)
• Law and order (39 questions)
• History (36 questions)
• General knowledge (124 questions)
